Introduction
What you need
Step 1
Audio Jack
- Use wire cutters to remove the audio jack.
- Use wire cutters to remove approximately 1/2 inch of insulation of the wire and separate the four wires inside of it.
- Red wire is the right speaker ‘+’ terminal.
- Green wire is the left speaker ‘+’ terminal.
- Golden wire is the ground terminal.
- Purple wire is the microphone terminal.

Step 2
- Take the replacement connector and separate the wires on it.
- Red wire is the right earphone.
- Green wire is the left earphone.
- Blue wire is the ground terminal.
- Gold wire is the microphone.

Red wire is the right earphone.
Green wire is the left earphone.
Blue wire is the ground terminal.
Gold wire is the microphone.
Step 3
- Put shrink tubing on either one of the wires.
- For each wire color, put the headphone wire and the replacement wire into clamps. Weave them together using fingers.
- Review the soldering guide before initiating Step 4.

Review the soldering guide before initiating Step 4.
Step 4
- Use soldering equipment to solder together two wires.
- Repeat this step for each of the four wire colors.
- Always wear safety glasses when soldering.

Step 5
- Using Digital Multimeter in the “Continuity” mode, place two probes on the soldered wires of the same color. You will hear audio signal indicating that there is a connection.
- Repeat this for each of the wire colors.
- If there is no Multimeter signal, you will need to resolder the wires and to make sure that wires of different colors are completely separated.

Step 6
- After all wires are soldered, cover them with shrink tubing.
- Use the heat gun to shrink the tubing and fit it tightly around the wires.
- Gently apply heat in order to shape the tubing around the soldered wires.
